The Hub-and-spoke strategy is widely used in the field of transportation. According to containerization and the development of transshipment technology, it is also introduced into European rail freight transportation. The objective of this article is to develop a service network design model for rail freight transportation based on the Hub-and-spoke strategy and efficient algorithms that can be applied to large-scale network. Although this model is for strategic decision, it includes not only general operational cost but also time-delay cost. The non-linearity of objective function due to time-delay factor is transformed into linearity by establishing train service variables by frequency. To solve large scale problem, this model used a heuristic method based on decomposition and three newly-developed algorithms. The new algorithms were examined with respect to four test problems base on the actual network of European rail freight and discussed the accuracy of solutions and the efficiency of proposed algorithms.

Wind energy began to receive attention as a new alternative fuel since 20 years ago and is growing as a booming global business model. Global wind power generation in the world has been continuously increasing for the past 10 years, accounting for over 30% of cumulative rate compared to total power generation. Global demand for wind power generation is gradually expanding due to restriction on carbon emission and environmental problems caused by increased greenhouse effect. Accordingly in this study, current transportation routes are classified into three types including access-priority route, economics-priority route, and convenience- priority route depending on distribution characteristics of wind power equipment in order to suggest transportation methods other than ships. The three types of transportation route that this study declared can make the Wind power equipment manufacturing companies can judge not only the duration of transportation but also effectiveness and economic feasibility. It means that the manufacturers can analyze and compare the effectiveness and economic feasibility, which are proceed by the shipping company and freight forwarder until now days.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the efficiency and productivity of domestic trucking transportation companies using DEA-CCR, BCC, and Malmquist indexes. Here, we analyze the top 14 domestic trucking transportation companies, based on cargo volume. The number of freight agents, trucks, and assets are used as input variables, and cargo volumes and sales are used as output variables. The efficiency of trucking transportation companies is examined using a DEA approach, and Malmquist indexes are applied to analyze productivity. According to the DEA results, the efficiency levels of the CCR, BCC, and scales for three companies (DMU 4, 5, and 10) are 1, indicating that these companies are operated efficiently. At the same time, the Malmquist indexes show that all companies have values smaller than 1, except for the period 2012-2013, indicating that their productivity decreased. Furthermore, the TECI indexes were all larger than 1, except for the period 2012-2013, indicating that the companies are efficient. Lastly, all TCI indexes are smaller than 1, except for the period 2012-2013, indicating regressing trends.

운송 서비스산업에 대한 지속적인 규제완화는 운송 기업의 진입 및 퇴출을 자유롭게 하였고, 외국 기업의 국내에서의 영업 활동이 가능하게 했을 뿐 아니라, 업종간 분류를 무의미하게 하여 운송기업은 전방위 경쟁을 피할 수 없게 되었다. 이러한 경쟁 환경하에서 운송 기업의 효율적인 운영은 국가 물류비 절감 측면에서, 그리고 해당 기업의 사활 측면에서 매우 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 소화물 일관 수송은 택배 또는 특송이라 불리우는 운송 서비스업의 일종으로, 화주 한명의 화물량이 차량 한 대 분량에 못 미치고, 고객이 원하는 출발지에서 목적지까지 운반해주는 특성을 가지고 있다. 소화물 일괄 수송은 지역을 순화하면서 화물을 접수하여 인근 터미널까지 운반하는 수집과정, 터미널과 터미널을 연결하는간선수송 과정, 터미널에서 최종 목적지까지 운반하는 배달과정을 거쳐 이루어진다. 본 연구를 통하여 터미널과 터미널을 연결하는 간선 수송과정에서 발생하는 비용을 줄이는 화물운송경로를 찾아주는 네트웍 최적화 모형이 개발되었으며, 이를 실제 업무에 적용하여 화물운송 경로를 조정함으로써 적재율 20%이상 개선, 운송비용 10%이상 절감이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Creating more efficient and effective intermodal transportation service in Northeast range is a critical issue because of more increased trade volume & demand for intermodal service in the world market and geographical barriers associated with goods transportation, especially in Korea, China and Japan. This study examines the possibility of Rail-ferry introduction and possible route in Northest area which can provide each country mutual economical and logistical satisfaction. But, this study requires more empirical and concrete examination based on the cost & benefit analysis.

The purpose of this paper is to provide basic information on how to make better policies that improves efficiencies and to derive policy directions using DEA (data envelopment analysis) model. Through this paper, we can identify whether or not the railroad service has an excellent performance, if there are any structural problems, in which sector it is experiencing a degree of inefficiency, and, therefore, how to set up a realistic target to improve efficiency of railroad transportation. According to the result, we need to introduce a better resource efficient economic strategy to reduce the rail line extension and the number of passenger cars for better efficiency from a public interest perspective, while to widen headways and/or reduce the rail line extension from an economic point of view.

Continuous oil price rising and the regulation of carbon emmission makes companies to have higher competitiveness. because of this trend, companies are trying to establish and manage efficient logistics system to improve customer service and reduce cost, so more competitive logistics complex is needed. To construct this kind of logistics complex, proper policy and logistics system for transportation is necessary. Especially, efficient operation through establishing system of logistics at the complex is very important for low cost and environmental friendly point of view. So this paper presents logistics network operation model for efficient transportation, especially approaches the problem with Multi-Phase.
